Transport phenomena in porous media (Advanced transport phenomena)

 • In nature and in a large number of practical applications it is common to find porous media.

• At a microscopic scale and in a general sense, virtually every solid material can be considered as being porous, with the exception of metallic structures, dense rocks and some plastics.

• The existence of reliable models to predict the behavior of porous media and of the transport phenomena occurring inside them can be very important in many scientific and technological areas.

Chemical process engineering:

 • Fixed bed reactors, filtration, drying, trickle bed reactors, chromatography, adsorption/desorption, ionic change, fuel cells, catalytic converters to reduce pollutant emissions from vehicles, absorption and distillation columns with and without chemical reaction.

 • Environmental engineering: migration of contaminants in soil and ground water, irrigation, soils cleaning with vapor injection, and incineration.

• Miscellaneous fields…

Model Characteristics for the Description of Transport Phenomena in Porous Media

• The development of a model aiming to describe the local structure of a porous medium should have the following characteristics:

• To give a simplified description but at the same time reasonable, including all the essential aspects of the porous media structure to be studied.

• The description of the transport phenomena is simplified, but should be satisfactory from a mathematical and physical point of view.

• To allow the calculation and provision of the transport coefficients and other important parameters, from the morphological and physicochemical characteristics of the porous matrix components

Professional Field Within Chemical Engineering Chemical engineering is such a vast and complex field that one can not be expert in whole of the field. Chemical engineer can work in major fields within chemical engineering. These fields are;  Research Process  Development Process  Design And Evaluation  Plant Design  Construction  Production Supervision  Plant Technical Service  Product Sale  Research  Research means to introduce something new or to get knowledge and improvement on something well established. There are four basic types of researchers  Market research  Fundamental research  Exploratory research  Process research Market research   Before investing in any project a market research is first conducted to calculate which product in demand these days and out of them which are more profitable to manufacturer. Fundamental research  In this research a new theory is developed and tested experimen...

 A Beginner's Guide to Fluid Mechanics Fluid mechanics can be a confusing subject if you’re not familiar with how fluids move and interact with each other. If you’re learning about fluid mechanics and are looking for some of the basics, this guide will help you understand everything from Bernoulli’s Principle to the Van Der Waals equation so that you can use this information in your work or everyday life. We’ll even go over some useful tricks that can help you figure out what might happen to fluids in certain situations without having to solve equations! What is fluid mechanics? Fluid mechanics is the study of fluids at rest and in motion. It covers a variety of topics, such as fluid dynamics, thermal physics, aerodynamics, hydrodynamics and hydrostatics. Fluids cover anything from liquids like water or oil, gases like air or nitrous oxide to less common substances like plasma or liquid crystal. Much of the work done in fluid mechanics is for both engineering purposes and scientifi...

Mastering Solid-State Diffusion: Challenges and Solutions in Materials Engineering

-
 At this very moment, billions of atoms are engaged in an intricate dance within the solid materials around us. This microscopic movement, known as the diffusion of solids, powers everything from the strengthening of your smartphone's screen to the formation of ancient minerals deep within the Earth's crust. Despite occurring in seemingly rigid structures, solid-state diffusion represents one of nature's most remarkable processes, enabling materials to transform their properties without melting. This phenomenon has become the cornerstone of modern materials engineering, though its complexities continue to challenge scientists and engineers alike. ## Introduction to Diffusion in Solids In the realm of materials science, solid-state diffusion represents a fascinating phenomenon where atoms, ions, or molecules move within a solid material despite being constrained by a rigid crystalline or amorphous structure. This movement, driven by concentration gradients and temperature, o...
